Where is the documentation located?

[Maurizio Cimadamore]

Hi,
not a lot of work has been done in this sense. Documentation exists, in 
places, but is not centralized, nor uniform.

For instance, some documentation which illustrates how to create a VS 
project is here:

https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/master/doc/ide.md

Documentation for building/using jtreg plugin for IntelliJ is here:

https://github.com/openjdk/jtreg/tree/master/plugins/idea

Sadly, we do not have documentation when it comes to creating an 
IntelliJ project (or Netbeans, I know there's support for that too).

For IntelliJ project, there's a script in bin/idea.sh which generates 
the project - more details on that option are contained in this very old 
thread:

http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/discuss/2015-January/003645.html

It would be nice to have a single md file (perhaps the existing ide.md 
file) containing all the required information. Any contrubution is 
welcome in this area!

Cheers
Maurizio
